For the life of me, I don’t understand why anyone who has a choice would run Windows. It’s been a nightmare since inception.

This is a hot mess. Millions of businesses have to stop printing until Microsoft fixes this, or risk getting pwned by an active exploit in the wild? WOW.

Sometimes you have to live with the environment you inherit because you aren’t just dealing with your preferences, you’re dealing with everyone else’s learning curve, or interoperability with other organizations you do business with.

Because pretty much all business specific programs are and have been created for windows. For personal use however, Linux/Ubuntu is the way to go. No stupid long restarts on update. No a big target for hackers like windows is. The system doesn’t get bogged down over time due to updates or installing programs. Generally safer and better performing. And it’s free for the OS and programs. My favorite right now is Kubuntu with the Plasma desktop. Fast and fancy. Looks like I need to do an update right now. 10:18 Central time. brb
